I beg to differ, Supreme. Those "jokers" in Tehran fought the bloodiest Middle East war in recent history with Iraq in the 1980s, have been the puppeteers of Hizbullah's continual terrorist activity, and have been keeping the Syrian war fueled for 2½ years. For them to be allowed to have nuclear weapons would be unthinkable.Well, he seems to have been bluffing all this time. And it always seems to be 'the Iranians will get a nuclear weapon by the end of the year!'... this has been for years now.
Israel attacking Iran would be catastrophic, and would pave the way for Sunni powers like Saudi Arabia to dominate the region. And Wahhabi Saudi Arabia is a much bigger threat to Israel than some jokers in Tehran.
You talk about continual bluffing. The only continual bluffing I've been hearing, is this "catastrophic war" that would break out if Iran were castrated. This talk has not abated for years, as the Arabs and Iranians have been fighting one intensely bloody war after another without any Israeli involvement.
Putting aside the anti-Jewish hype, the French have been coolly assessing the situation; and they are siding with the Israelis and Saudis:

-- Hollande and Netanyahu to consider forming a joint French-Israeli-Arab front against Iran
This is for real. Obama has left a serious vacuum in the Middle East, by abandoning Israel and courting the Iranians. The Russians have already stepped in, and have more than replaced the US as Egypt's main arms supplier. The French can see what is happening, and are not about to let Israel switch -- out of desperation -- to the Russians as well.
Vive le France!
